>>106732488I don't like it because it's not a tool anymore, it's a product. A computer needs an operating system to work as intended. Microsoft made Windows a spyware, that serves you advertisements.>>106732503>>106732533These are the same people that work at Microsoft
>>106732488BSOD
Malware / Spyware / Potentially Unwanted ProgramsIt used to be just 3rd party malware / pup / spyware. But by now the entire OS has become a platform to record your habits, sell them to ad companies and use it for advertisement.Same complaint goes for Android btw, and to some extend IOS
>>106732488But I don't hate windows doe.
I don't use windows because my shitty laptop cannot run win11. also im tired of AI slop being shoved down my throat
random wifi disconnectsrandom broken audio, gets silent and needs rebootconstantly wants me to sign to accountbad posix portabilityno ext4 filesystem supportbase system eats way over 50 GB
>>106732488It force you to use bloat shit you dont care for the sake of spying every click you do, whenever you try to increase the performance debloating the brain dead os they made it became unstable and shit stops working beecause it requires the spyware to be enable.
>>106732488NAKED GRANDMA
>>106732488FORCED REBOOTS, STEVE!
>>106732488Probably windows registry. Every time I had to go edit that stupid shit just to get something to work I wanted to blow my brains out.Or the times windows just decides to revert changes I make to it.Really just the feeling of not actually owning and controlling my own computer.
>>106732488>settings and control panel are not organized well, often takes me a while to find what I'm looking for >windows 11 updates often have annoying and persistent little bugs (previous versions of windows I never worried about updates like this)>constantly in fear of some gay telemetry spying on my privacy and recording me>search bar and task bar tries to give "sponsored content" or recommended local news, it feels like a gay boomer machine >always asking me to back up files, join a windows account, make a Microsoft account. I have no idea what either of those accounts are and I see no way they could help meI don't hate windows but I can't see how anyone could really like it in its current state. just take out all the gay AI stuff, tracking, and targeted AD bullshit and I can deal with the bugs
>>106732488I'll take "randomly shuts down my computer to update whenever it goddamn feels like it" Steve
>>106732879>>106732898W-WHAT?!
>>106732488>called Windows>can't windows for shit
Windows runs so well when u ain't got a bitch in ya ear telling you it's shit
>>106732866But enough about Linux.
Bill Gates!*DING*
>>106732488>whybecause they hate you. with a burning seething hatred. everything you do on there belongs to them. but you are completely useless and a burden to them
>>106732488Mandatory Microsoft accounts Steve*DING*
>>106732488>why they hate WindowsBecause i have to use it.I would've hated linux or macos as well, but, gladly, i have no reason to ever look in that direction.
>>106732488Nobody likes windows. Not even microsoft likes windows. There is no alternative OS for normal people
>>106732652Prove one thing you said in that post you made is true.
I have 2 side by side. Let me show you>log on to my Windows work computer>slow to spin up>it was in sleep mode and now half the apps have crashed, need to restart them>screen freezes randomly>ctrl alt del doesn't work>restart computer>log back in>screen freezes again, have to wait 5 minutes for it to unjam>back to login screenMeanwhile my Mac>wake it up from sleep mode>do something immediately without any startup time or issues>the end
>>106732488I'd like to recite this list of problems which are present in every version of Windows for PC for your convenience. >Devastating Windows rot (might be solved in future Windows releases if developers switch from Win32 to UWP).>No enforced file system and registry hierarchy (I have yet to find a single serious application which can uninstall itself cleanly and fully). The $USER directory in Windows, specially in Windows 10, is an inexplicable mess.>No true safe mode (rogue applications may easily run in it).>The user as a system administrator (thus viruses/malware - most users don't and won't understand UAC warnings).>No good packaging mechanism (MSI is way too fragile).>No system-wide update mechanism (which includes third party software - to be fair there are third party applications which offer this functionality, but then such applications don't support core Windows updates).>In certain cases it's extremely difficult to find or update drivers for your hardware devices (anyone who's tried to install a fresh Windows onto their laptop will testify).>Windows is extremely difficult to debug (e.g. try finding out why your system is slow to boot).>Windows boot problems are too often fatal and unsolvable unless you reinstall from scratch.>Windows is hardware dependent (especially when running from UEFI).>Windows updates are terribly unreliable, very slow (to install) and they also waste disk space (Microsoft has promised to fix updates after over 13 years of constant woes from Windows users).>Windows cannot replace system DLLs on the fly and restart corresponding services which depend on said DLLs due to its architecture. As a result some system updates require multiple reboots (innocuous malevolence in me requires to mention that in Linux you can even update the kernel on the fly).(cont.)
>>106738254>The Windows OS installer doesn't give a damn about other OSes installed on your PC and it always overwrites the MBR. In case of already existing Windows installations, it sets the newly installed Windows as the default OS - no questions asked. In case of UEFI, booting of other non-Windows OSes is unsupported and Windows actively prevents this.>WinSxS, though a neat idea, turned into some madness: Windows keeps the versions of files the user won't ever need: for instance the English version of Windows will have copies of files for many other languages irrespectively of the chosen locale or MUI.>Cryptic error messages (considering the size of the OS, >9GB as of Windows 10, this practice is simply ridiculous).>Most malware writers target Windows as the most popular desktop OS, so it has the biggest number of viruses among all other OSes (over five thousand new viruses daily).>Windows loves thrashing your HDD - Windows 10 with its incessant tracking is the worst offender.>Microsoft programmers are still unable to cope with NTFS fragmentation thirty years after its introduction. To make things worse most Windows applications do not preallocate files thus they contribute to fragmentation even more.>Windows anti-virus products oftentimes make your PC less safe - so if you want perfect security and privacy, stop using Windows and migrate to Linux right away. OEM updaters make your PC wide open for attacks.>Microsoft has decided that you will no longer be able to download certain Windows updates manually. You'll only be able to get them via Windows Update.>"sfc /scannow" is offered as a solution to most Windows Update Service and Microsoft Installer Service errors, yet in absolute most cases it's totally ineffective.>Windows does not allow you to use any partitions other than the first one on your removable USB flash drive. There's no logic or explanation behind this totally ridiculous and artificial limitation.(cont.)

>>106740470The only reason she is granted attention is because of her huge milkers.Many such cases
>>106740497>Many such caseslink please
>>106740470True. If you're just using your machine as a facebook station, then a simple Ubuntu desktop is perfect for you, that or an iPad. Windows is for power users, and creatives use Mac.
>>106740470you couldve became a millionaire though by investing in the companies that said they were going to vote for him and blew up in the market afterwards.
>>106732488bitlocker on first boot, never logged into microsoft account so didnt have a key.was luckily able to return the laptop for another.
>>106742500Give it back, Jamal.
>>106741484I disagree. I use my machine for more than Facebook. If you're constantly doing CLI tasks *nix is just better. I realized at some point I was spending much of my time with putty open doing tasks on remote machines that I could just be doing locally without spyware or bloat that needs to be cleaned up. Office drones all think they are "power users" lmao.

>>106738142Remember when the windows 10 start menu search completely failed back in 2021 simply because a line of code prevented it from having an Internet connection?
>>106742703How does that prove anything which you said in your post?
>>106732488It's primarily an ad platform for micrsoft's subscription services. Second priority is third party ads in start menu and search. Third priority is the actual OS. Which is currently an unstable shitshow.
